This form serves as notice that the Seller has agreed to sell, and Buyer has agreed to buy a specific property. Record this instrument when a Land Contract has been completed. This is done for a variety of reasons.
A Memorandum of Land Contract serves as a notice to the "world" that a specific property is under a seller-financed purchase agreement.

Often used when parties want the details of a Land Contract to be kept private.

Why a buyer needs a recorded Memorandum of Land Contract. It is important to prevent loans or encumbrances being placed on the property by the existing Deed holder. Encumbrances have been placed on properties even though the Contract states they can't. This can be devastating for a buyer who has made payments. For protection either the Land Contract document or a Memorandum of Land Contract document should be recorded.

Why a Seller needs a recorded Memorandum of Land Contract. When owner financing is involved, and a buyer needs to finance property at a later point in time, a Lending Institution will most likely require a recorded Memorandum document. Further, banks like to see a history of payments, at least 12 months, often referred to as "Seasoning" a recorded Memorandum proves the subject property was under contract at a specific time.

Forms used, created quitclaim deed that the county accepted without a second look (turns out they see deeds.com forms regularly via erecording and in person). Will be back for any real estate related forms I need and they carry. Will always be my first stop. Also, will use erecording next time, mad I didn't see it this time.

Sorry to hear that your expectations were missed. Your order has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your expectations elsewhere. Do keep in mind that purchasing legal forms should not be an exploratory endeavor.

The forms were immediately available for download, which was nice. However, I was not impressed by the lack of several features: 1) there was no way to edit set text in the form, such as where it says you should consult an attorney. That is not necessary for recording the deed and I wanted to deleted it, but could not. 2) Also, under the "Notes" section, there is a limited area to write; I tried adding a fuller explanation of something, but the form would not accept or include it when I printed the final document. The form may do the job, but it's not very sophisticated or elegant.
